The party MP, Mr. Annita Dimitriou, described the proposal made to her by the president of DISY, Averof Neophytou, as particularly honorable.
In a written statement, Ms. Dimitriou thanked the president of DISY and the Politburo of the party that adopted Mr. Averoff's proposal for her candidacy for the presidency of the Parliament.
“This candidacy,” he said, “does not belong only to me. I share it with the hundreds of thousands of women in our Cyprus who have been under-represented in the decision-making centers of our country for decades, despite the steps taken in the right direction in recent years. “
“It is a big step,” he added, “for the practical support of equality in our country. A positive example of the transition to a society of equal opportunities, in which every woman can believe in herself and her potential. I accept the proposal with a special sense of responsibility “.
